Customer Reviews for Home Decorators Collection Pewter Cordless Blackout Cellular Shades for Windows - 35 in. W x 48 in. L (Actual Size 34.75 in. W x 48 in. L)

We have had our cellular blind for about two months now and it was easy to install and the instructions were clear and easy to understand and finished off our bathroom make over project perfectly. The blind operates with ease and it's so nice to not have to deal with those ugly cords anymore that always seem to get grubby over time. Our blind came with three brackets but since our blind was not very wide or heavy I opted to only use two brackets which worked out just fine. I gave four stars instead of five because once the blind is installed you can see the front edges of the shiny silver brackets which are not visible on the more expensive well known brands, but this is a minor irritation and for the price should not be a deal breaker. Overall we are happy with our purchase and would recommend to anyone looking to smarten up there window opening.

I bought these shades for my beach house to block out the sun in my family room in 2 windows that reflected on my TV. I had previously purchased so I knew these were easy to install and great. These look so good, a good price, easy to move up and down, I am very happy with this product.

Great Shades!
Love these shades. Easy to install. They are a tight fit but you can get them cut to size at the store. Luckily, I didn't need too. Any light getting through was because my windows aren't perfectly square and level, otherwise total blackout.. Not as expensive as I thought either. Good purchase all around.

Best Shadow White 9/16 in. Blackout Cordless Cellular Shade
Great shades. They block almost 100% of light. They are a very tight fit. I ordered 11 of them for the whole RV. All look great!
I put them up myself and they went in easy with a snap. I love how they go up and down with one hand and no cord. They give me the privacy that I want at night and the beauty of an open sunny window during the day time. I also love the fact that they are white on the outside. Fantastic product that is great for my budget and not complicated to install.
And best of all, they were delivered a week earlier than expected.

These blinds are beautiful and they definitely work on blocking out the light. It did take the better part of a day to put four of them up, as I work slow to make sure the measurements are just right. I was worried about the shadow white not being "true white" but you can see in the pictures that it does look white. The only down side would be that there is not a valance to cover the top rail. But, I like the nice clean lines of this in my window.

Ordered about 10 of these and absolutely love them. Great quality for the price, however 1 of my shades seems to be defective and have been trying to get a replacement for it as I paid almost $100 for it and it’s been very difficult.

Really Disappointed
I originally wrote a very positive review of this product (which I would’ve liked to edit now, but was having a hard time finding). We bought these four months ago and I loved them at first. They felt papery but they did a good job blocking light at an affordable price. Fast forward four months and these shades are already starting to fall apart. If you look at the pictures, it’s like a coating or whatever is on the shade is coming off and letting light through. I didn’t catch it at first because the tinier spots don’t show up except for when full sunlight is streaming through. But now that there are bigger spots, it’s become obvious. This is the worst shade of the four we bought. The shades in my kid’s room are beginning to get the pinprick spots as well where the shades crease (I would’ve assumed it was wear and tear from my kids had I not noticed it on mine first). Very disappointed. I knew these wouldn’t last a lifetime for the price, but four months? Even at that price point, it’s a money loss. Looking into any possible warranty options. Next time, we’ll know...

Great shades. They block almost 100% of light. They are a very tight fit. Not sure why they made the bottom bigger than the top, but they all fit. I ordered 9 of them for the whole house. A few had to be pulled all the way open to fit, I guess the windows aren't perfect but they all look great!

We love these
We installed these shades in all of our bedrooms, in the family room and on one of the windows in the sunroom that gets really hot. I love three things about them. 1. They're so convenient. No tangled cords. 2. They're attractive. 3. They really keep the sun out when you're trying to sleep. LOVE THEM.

Started great but don’t last
The blinds started out great and worked with the remote as well as with the application. Then I started to continually get a back drive fault on the motor. I have had the blinds for almost 4 months and only 3 out of the 7 work consistently.
Here is the deal I have constantly ran into. I have reprogrammed these blinds around 300 times. When you open the blinds or close the blind it will constantly cause a back drive fault. This causes me to have to reprogram the blind. So now I have reprogrammed the blind and lowered the top setting to avoid the blind going to high maybe and faulting again. Close the blind open the blind maybe once or twice. Back drive fault again... spend another 15 minutes programming all the blinds........ 2-3 more openings and guess what..... back drive fault.. sadly I’m stubborn and spent way too much money on these but I believe my only option now is to replace them with standard pull operating blinds.

With the pandemic, I was concerned about having strangers come into my home for window treatments. I purchased the blinds first and they went up easy so I decided to try the shades. They have only been up a week but I love them! I put them up myself and they went in easy with a snap. I love how they go up and down with one hand and no cord. The pewter color is a beautiful gray. They give me the privacy that I want at night and the beauty of an open sunny window during the day time. I also love the fact that they are white on the outside. Fantastic product that is great for my budget and not complicated to install.

In all honesty, I wasn't sure this purchase would be a good one. They were easy to install and they really do blackout a room. I felt like I was in a hotel with how well these shades keep light out. I have been recommending them to everyone. Since our new home had no trees at all for shading and keeping the house cooler, these shades are amazing and look great.

Like most cellular shades, these are fragile if mishandled, but they do an excellent job of blocking light straight-on. Be aware though that the cellular design allows significant light to exit to the sides. Due to the weight of the lower cells, the upper cells elongate, allowing more light to exit to the sides. If you truly want to block all light, you should have a plan for dealing with this trait.

These were ridiculous to hang. I have been able to hang light fixtures and shelving but had to get help with these.
These look good but the bottoms are bowed so they do not sit flat.
Would be an improvement to make different clips.
For the price I would still recommend them even with the bowing flaw and the horrible clips

Great, but extremely loud
Overall I am happy with the purchase. However, I have to give it 3 stars because I wish the motor wasn't that loud. This morning, my dog jumped out of bed when the programed shade opened.

I did an outside mount on this with about an 1 1/2 in Wider than my window as recommended and while it isn’t 100% blackout it definitely darkens my room, keeps it cooler and minimizes outside noise. And they have a nice modern look to them. My only suggestion for more blackout would be to do 3-4 in wider than window width but some light will always kinda peek through unless you add curtains. Still worth it.

Purchase only at a discounted price!
Serves its purpose as a shade. The room darkening model does keep the light out, but made of very thin paper like material. Custom cut, but whoever did the cutting didn’t bother with quality control, so straight out of the box each “cone” was mashed and fused together. I had to use a razor blade to seperate while being extremely carefull not to cut the very thin material. A customer shouldn’t have to do this. You pay for something it should be sent in proper condition. See the attached photo. I would reccommend this product but definately not paying full price, only if it were on sale at a really good price. Not worth the full price.

Shades are perfect for hot south west sun. The make a huge difference in indoor temps. both winter and summer. I love the way home depot measures; you enter your measurements and the site calculates the EXACT measurements the shades will be - so no light at the edges. Arrived timely, securely packaged. These are the 7th windows I've done. Super easy to install!

If you're looking for true blackout coverings for your windows, do yourself a favor and order these immediately. I was beyond happy after I hung one shade up for comparison to a standard blind. (See attached photo) They are so worth the money. They are super easy to install. They arrived in under 2 weeks. Completely and utterly satisfied.

Just what we needed
Bought These flies for a right room or we just needed some relief from the heat and sun in the summer, lines were fairly easy to install they look great, they are however paper so they’re not incredibly sturdy, but we don’t have little kids and can be careful with them so that’s fine with us

They are perfect for my grandson's room keeping it dark for his afternoon nap! They fit right in the clips that the former owner had so just used those. Have had them about 6 weeks now. Picked them up at curbside and they came out with the shades in only a few minutes!

Easy "inside the window frame" install. And when they say blackout shades, they mean blackout. Only light coming through is the cracks along the side where the frame is slightly larger = the .1875" sliver on each side of the window. Using these for starting night shift for residency, and am very appreciative how well they work!
